Kidnappers Are Wreaking Havoc In Nigeria- Economist by Omooba77: 3:11pm On Jan 20 |
How much politicians in Nigeria care about national insecurity has long been correlated with how close it gets to their mansions in Abuja, the capital. On its outskirts on January 2nd a father and his six daughters were kidnapped, prompting a rare outcry on high. A crowdfunding effort to pay the ransom was even backed by a former minister. But the kidnappers instead killed one of the girls and demanded more cash. The wife of President Bola Tinubu publicly lamented a “devastating loss”. Yet such horrors are still appallingly frequent—and largely ignored by politicians. In one incident last week in the south-east 45 people were kidnapped and are still missing, yet few leaders spoke out. The deadliest zone is the north-east, where jihadists linked to Islamic State attack the army and villages. The north-west, too, is riddled with gangs that routinely kidnap for ransom. A decades-long conflict between mostly Muslim herders and largely Christian farmers rumbles on in the country’s centre, where on Christmas Eve gunmen mowed down at least 160 people. Separatist violence still smoulders in the south-east. https://www.economist.com/middle-east-and-africa/2024/01/18/killings-and-abductions-persist-in-nigeria |

APC the demonic party destined to destroy Nigeria. Nigerians will never forget 2015 and 2023, the years demons got enthroned in Nigeria. May God continue to show mercy on well meaning and reasonable Nigerians who saw the evil agenda of APC, and voted against APC demons and also condemned Buhari's 8 years of demonic rule that set Nigeria on the road to perdition. |
